WOYWW - well this time I shopped

Two weeks without any new stash was WAY too  long for my willpower, so this week I have two lots of new things to show you!!  Oh, sorry, welcome to my desk (it's still on the floor, Julia - the previous shot you commented on was just from a VERY low angle...... ) So, it's Wednesday again (well it will be when this gets published!) and it's time for globe-trotting round the desks of the universe thanks to JULIA.


First, I got some new Tim'n'Wendy stamps (well, they were on special offer at the time, thanks to Dyan  at AFTH - and they'd have come super-duper quick if I hadn't typed the wrong postcode in the order..... oops!) but HOW beautifully they were wrapped - look - and yes, I have kept the heart (of course!) to re-use somewhere down the line....











 And then I kept seeing the new Dina Wakley stamps that I "had" to have some - I got them here but they are all over the place oh my they are just gorgeous.









I had a play on Monday - oh, yum!! I haven't finished this yet, but I had to get the ink open - Wendy has been raving about how fab the Vermillion ink looks over Wild Honey distress (stain here) ink - I think she's right!



So what have you been up to? Got any new 'toys' or re-organised your stash?  Do show us all, we're a nosy lot.... See you soon!

    It’s fun getting new stash arriving in the post isn’t it Helen and in my case even more fun when it’s a prize that you don’t have to pay for!

    Your new stamps are lush and I’m sure you’re going have great fun playing with them all

    Hi Helen, two weeks does seem to be a long time - we should be drip fed crafting goodies for perfect crafting health. Fabulous stamps - love all that scribbly script and the tag is looking good. Your floor habit just deserves a mention now and again. Have a great week. Elizabeth x #59
